Owlsome Accessories! (Part one)

Owls are revered in many cultures as a symbol of wisdom and prosperity. My love for owls started when I was living in Japan. Walking around the shops and markets in Japan you'll see lots of owl charms, statues, toys etc.  Owls are seen as bringing luck and offering protection from suffering.
I love that owls have such deep meaning and significance and yet are also very cute!!  Owls have been in fashion on and off over the years, but they will always be a favourite of mine.
